Taquitos and Tamarindo drink
Afeni E.

The taquitos is so good and fresh and the drink oh my gosh, just amazing customer service top-tier. This is my go to spot.

Adobada fries: No Sour Cream, No Yellow Cheese, Add Rice.
Kyre T.

Bomb.com. Was on the hunt for some loaded fries in the area, and what really drew me here was that here they use shoestring fries. IMO it's the only way to go for chili cheese fries--but rarely if ever have I seen these for asada fries. And oh does it make all difference. The adobada was deeply marinated and tender; all meat and no gristly bits! And the biggest surprise was the guacamole. Fresh guac!! I know it's a preference thing but I am just not a fan at ALL of the creamy aguamole at most spots so I usually request it taken off. This was punchy and chunky just the way I like it. Boy did this hit the spot. Washed it all down with a delicious sandía agua fresca I saw another yelper recommend, which also did notttt disappoint. Perfectly sweet with little bits of watermelon so you know it's the real deal. Definitely checking back in to try more.

Carne Asada Nachos/Fries + Watermelon Agua Fresca
Anabelle H.

This was my first time at Albert's Mexican Food and I had nothing but good things to say. There were so many drive through places to choose from, but I'm so glad we ultimately settled on Albert's. DO NOT get this place mixed up with similar ones close by. As soon as we pulled up to the speaker, he greeted us kindly and took our order. - Carne Asada Nachos + Fries (5/5): Very delicious and filling! All for only $15. It comes with guac, sour cream, a bunch of cheese, etc. Very very yummy and I would get it again in the future. I loved both the green and red sauces so you won't regret either of them. - Watermelon Agua (5/5): I loved this drink so much! It was so refreshing and the watermelon chunks in the drink were perfection! Not soggy at all and still very crisp, meaning that the agua is made fresh. A must get! Mr. Negron was so helpful and friendly, I'll definitely come back soon and recommend Albert's to my friends and family. The prices are worth it for the amount of food you get and the quality. Even after the short drive home, our nachos and fries were still crispy and hot. Albert's is open late so you can get your munchies after a night out. 10/10!!

Menu
Angeli P.

It is a solid place. Asada fries I would give 3/5. It was an okay order. Service was quick. The menu is huge! Feels like a decent place for quick take out. The menu and food is pretty straight forward. We ordered through drive thru. I wish there was more cheese to my asada fries, I will give it kudos for not having tendon asada pieces.

Carne asada fries 3/5 - this was okay but I remember it being a lot better in high school. Meat was dry. Not a lot of guacamole. But there were a lot of fries. Good to share with 3+ people. Carne asada and fish tacos 2/5 - both were not good. Fish was fry. Carne asada was dry. I don't recommend the tacos. The fish was also very small with lots of batter around.

SUPER SPICY CHILE VERDE
Maria O.

This place needs to really make their foods in a consistent basis. I ordered the Chile Verde plate but this 2nd time around it was sooo spicy it hurts my mouth. The 1st time I ordered it was ok. Not thr best but this time around it was so freaking spicy that I had to down my horchata drink. It's ridiculous on how spicy this time. The 1st order was not spicy at all the 2nd time it's extremely spicy. Seriously I get that it's Chile Verde but make your *meal* a consistent one. Not have one order not spicy n the next super spicy. I WILL NEVER COME BACK TO THIS ESTABLISHMENT AGAIN EVER. THIS ORDER OF CHILE VERDE IS SO DAMN SPICY THAT ITS NOT ENJOYABLE.

Ky P.

we love it here 100/10 Carne asada fries & chilaquiles always fresh and service is fast. Been coming here for years

Carne Asada Fries
Lanny N.

again still gassssssss asfffff the best carne asada fries in the 626 area. service is wonderful :) go to spot for drive thru as well. when it was the holidays we would try to go but they were closed for awhile and ngl was pissed they didn't open sooner lmfao we wouldn't want to buy asada fries anywhere else. get the chili toreado fries no beans w/ grilled onion and shrimp :P

Famous Albert's California Burrito
Albert L.

Asada/ fries in california burrito were dry with no flavor and looking back I was charged 15.95 (after tax) which is more than if I were to order super fries which was 14.55 (after tax) at a different location which makes no sense since the burrito is smaller than an order of super fries. Not a good deal for what I got. Very sad because this was my favorite location back in high school when it was still near mtn view.

The drive through is so fast and convenient. The lady who was working was super nice. Carne asada burrito with guacamole and pico de gallo was good!

It looks like a warehouse. In tell you come in side. It's totally different.. it looks like that because the sun hits the restaurant. So it's not bad in side. The restaurant is nice and quiet..

They can get busy quick! We got: Platillo especial (2 birria burritos w green sauce on top) - the birria was a little too sweet for my liking. Personally it wasn't for me but I can see why other people will like it :) 7.5/10 2 frijoles y queso - if you're trying to fiber maxx this is a good one. Refried beans were cooked very good and tortilla was nice and fresh! The salsa on it was a good addition 8.8/10 chicken tinga - this I enjoyed. There was a lot of chicken and the inside of the burrito was saucy as well. 9.5/10 Would come back for the frijoles y queso and chicken tinga!!

Looking for a Mexican restaurant that makes things with fresh ingredients? We'll look no further…read morebecause El Taquito is the place for you. It was my first time coming and was so amazed when I saw that my sopes were made with fresh masa. The fresh masa truly does change up the food taste. My sopes were delicious and size of them were so eye opening. They were huge! I had 1 for lunch and the second for my afternoon break. I also tried their homemade agua de horchata that was refreshing and delicious. Service was great and was attended quickly. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more items on the menu. Lastly, there salsas were so perfect with spice. I loved it!

I liked that they use refried beans inside, and the overall flavor was good. My only issue was the meat to rice and beans ratio. There was definitely a lot more rice than carne asada, and I would've liked a little more meat in there. Overall, the burrito was good and the portion was a decent size, but I think it would've been much better with more carne asada. I noticed their wet burrito seems pretty popular, so that's probably what I'll try next time.

We remembered that someone we know had recommended this restaurant, so we decided to give it a try. As soon as we walked through the door, Andrea greeted us with a huge smile! It honestly reminded me of visiting family. Both Andrea and Adriana were so friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our visit. My husband and I both love crunchy shredded beef tacos, so of course we both ordered them! My husband chose the grilled vegetables instead of the rice and beans, which was a nice option. We also ordered the guacamole--YUM! And the chips were warm and fresh! Their Jamaica was absolutely delicious too! Next time I'm craving a Jamaica or Horchata, I already know where I'm going.
